Yours looks organized compared to mine!

Got some more done. now to empty the tool boxes and get them straightened up. Thinking about moving the lifts both back 24 inches or so.
going to try to stop by harbor freight today for some more Hanson style socket rails. Possibly scoop one of their welding tables with the fit up kit.
might get on TC Bros and buy another linkage kit for the CB chopper so i can redo my brake linkage.

Started both bikes on the old gas last night. The sporty didn't mind it, the Honda didn't like it so much.

...stop by harbor freight today for some more Hanson style socket rails.

You prefer the Hanson style?   Wont the sockets fall off if tipped over? 
I use the rail type as I like to bring it over to the project I am working on so I have all sizes at hand.

I like them quicker to grab and out up. They have their disadvantages as well still. I just grab the Hanson style setup and set them on my lift with me. They are not convenient when I'm working on my cars though

Went to HF today. Picked up some more Hanson style rails and a Titanium brand welding table with the fit up kit. I've actually wanted one of these since they came out with them.

I think I'll move my lifts back a little bit to accommodate the welding table.

Your shop is coming along nicely. After you get settled in think about converting your florescent lights to LED tubes and skip the ballasts. The wife said that the power bill went down some and it is much brighter in there. Plus I haven't had to change a tube in the year since the change over. Changing 8' tubes on the 12' ceiling isn't fun.

[Gurp]

I did. I pulled down the 4 old style fluorescent fixtures. In place of 2 of them I wired up wall outlets and put up 6 linkable LED fixtures.

I've heard some good reports on that welding table.

Congrats on getting all of this in place. It's a long road from A to B sometimes, I'm still in between personally but I haven’t lost hope.

It's a shorter road than it feels for sure.
Looking at it I thought I would never be this close several times. My oldest son helped me a ton. A lot of quality time we get working together just like my father and I spent time.
Yesterday and the day before we dug a 55ft ditchline together. 

I'm going to spray it down with WD40 and cover with shop rags to keep it from rusting while I get the drainage cans mortar leaks fixed. Gotta stop that water from getting in the garage.

Then the offshoot of the garage a 7x12 is going to become my temporary bedroom for a few years. Honestly it will be kinda nice. Walk out straight into the shop. Until winter when ibhave to walk outside to get in the house lol

Still working on the French drain and drain. Set up so water will stop coming in the garage. Ended up digging a Fift.
Y plus feet #$%* all of it, eighteen to twenty four inches deep and burying four inch corrugated pipe in it. Now i'm working on the french drain section to keep water off the foundation and seal the foundation. It.
Has not been a great time digging through seams of coal and sandstone with a matic. But it's coming along.

I'd post a pic of my garage as it currently stands but Terry has parked another stinkin' BMW in there and no-one wants to see that 

[Gurp]

Let's see it!
